* column: add dense layout supportNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy2012-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Normally all cells (and in turn columns) share the same width. This layout mode can waste space because one long item can stretch our all columns. With COL_DENSE enabled, column width is calculated indepdendently. All columns are shrunk to minimum, then it attempts to push cells of the last row over to the next column with hope that everything still fits even there's one row less. The process is repeated until the new layout cannot fit in given width any more, or there's only one row left (perfect!). Apparently, this mode consumes more cpu than the old one, but it makes better use of terminal space. For layouting one or two screens, cpu usage should not be detectable. This patch introduces option handling code besides layout modes and enable/disable to expose this feature as "dense". The feature can be turned off by specifying "nodense".

* t9002: work around shells that are unable to set COLUMNS to 1Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2012-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | In t9002-column.sh, file with expected output was shared between two test cases, but set in the first one. Since the first test case can now be skipped, setting up the expected output is moved outside of the test case.

* column: add columnar layoutNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy2012-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | COL_COLUMN and COL_ROW fill column by column (or row by row respectively), given the terminal width and how many space between columns. All cells have equal width. Strings are supposed to be in UTF-8. Valid ANSI escape strings are OK. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* Add column layout skeleton and git-columnNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy2012-04-27
A column option string consists of many token separated by either a space or a comma. A token belongs to one of three groups: - enabling: always, never and auto - layout mode: currently plain (which does not layout at all) - other future tuning flags git-column can be used to pipe output to from a command that wants column layout, but not to mess with its own output code. Simpler output code can be changed to use column layout code directly.
